Novi Welcomes Exciting New Asian-Themed Development
Novi, Michigan, is buzzing with excitement as the first-ever Sakura Novi takes shape! This exciting, Asian-themed, mixed-use development is set to transform the local landscape by introducing unique dining and shopping experiences. As construction progresses, three new stores have just been announced, bringing plenty of flavor and fun to the area.
Get Ready for Teso Life!
First up, we have Teso Life, a fantastic Japanese-themed department store that promises to be a treasure trove for shoppers. Stretching over 12,000 square feet, this vibrant store will offer everything from delicious snacks and cosmetics to charming homeware, kitchen gadgets, stationary, and even toy collectibles! While this will be the first Teso Life in Michigan, the brand is quite popular, boasting 15 stores already in states like New York, Texas, and Georgia, with even more on the way in other parts of the country!
Baked Delights at Paris Baguette
Next on the list is the delectable Paris Baguette. This Korean-owned bakery, which specializes in French and Asian pastries, will have a cozy 3,000-square-foot space at Sakura Novi. Holding its ground as the third Paris Baguette in Michigan, this bakery is part of a much larger story. With 3,785 locations in countries such as South Korea, China, and Vietnam, and 105 across the U.S. and Canada, it’s clear that French-inspired baked goods with a delightful Asian twist is a recipe for success!
Fun and Games at Klawsome!
Finally, prepare to meet Klawsome!, the first stand-alone claw machine arcade in Michigan. It’s all about fun here as visitors can try their luck at winning cute, kawaii-style stuffed animals from vibrant claw machines. But the excitement doesn’t end there! Players can trade their prized goodies for larger and rarer stuffed animals or even anime figurines, making every visit an adventure.
Dining Options Making a Splash
The new stores are just the tip of the iceberg—Sakura Novi will also host an array of restaurants to tempt your taste buds. The initial lineup includes Mikiya Wagyu Shabu House by the Chubby Cattle Group, Dancing Pine Korean Steak House, and a Presotea Taiwanese boba tea shop. These culinary options are set to open their doors in May 2025, giving you plenty of reasons to plan that first visit!
If you’re a sushi, ramen, or breakfast lover, you’re in luck! There’s still room available for more food services, as well as businesses in the beauty, wellness, and fitness industries. The development is ready to accommodate a variety of retail options.
Luxurious Living at Sakura Novi Residences
But wait, there’s more! Sakura Novi isn’t just about shopping and dining—there’s a new living space coming to town! The Residences at Sakura Novi will feature 117 luxurious townhomes managed by KMG Prestige. These stunning three-story townhouses will be available for leasing beginning February 2025, providing options with two or three bedrooms that range from 1,331 to 1,765 square feet. Each unit will come complete with garages for one or two cars.
The development is set to be an oasis of tranquility, featuring a Japanese-themed garden with a serene pond, a natural sensory garden, play areas, and even a public plaza designed for community events. It’s a vision for a vibrant and interconnected neighborhood that residents will surely love!
With so much to look forward to at Sakura Novi, the upcoming months promise to be thrilling. From delightful shopping sprees and satisfying restaurant outings to peaceful living spaces, Novi is set to become the place to be in 2025!
